116 Rutledge Avenue

Description

Two photographs (scans) of 116 Rutledge Avenue:

a: West (front) elevation, showing the piazzas. View of the house is partially obstructed by trees.

b: Corner view looking up at the piazzas on the upper story of the house (northwest corner). View of the lower story is obstructed by trees. Portion of an iron gate in foreground.

The address appears in a list of "new buildings" in 1895 ("two-story wood dwelling") but not on the 1902 Sanborn Map. James R. Johnson, a coal merchant, lived there by 1908. The house was demolished in 1970.
